I've been wanting an iPod mini for awhile now. I don't need 20 Gb for my music or any files. I probably wouldn't need 4 Gb either. I've been thinking about getting a Rio lately, because I don't need a ton of space and they're much cheaper. Not sure of the quality of them though.

This kid I know has one and he brings it on the bus everyday.
Personally I don't need an ipod, because I'd never be able to get through that many songs. I'll take an mp3 player, though. I don't need all that space.
But Ipods are really cool.

I just got an I-River today. It's really nice.. it holds enough songs, has a FM radio, and you can record things on it. And it's only about $100-$120. It's really very nice.. ^_^

I'd love to get one, but...The quality of the music isn't quite as good. It's mp3 quality, which means it's all compacted into a tiny space, so much of the quality and sound disappears. That's why I'm just sticking with my good ol' cd player XD bulky, but good quality. I'd still love an iPod though. But yeah, that's just me. ^__^

Nomad Jukebox for life!
Actually, it's broken. I'm gonna get an ipod, but i'm gonna wait for the next generation one. Or for a big price drop.

I am hopping to get one for my birthday, yet it is not likely

I want a Green Ipod so bad. 
I might ask for it for Xmas, but because of me getting a new computer I might not get it.

I want an ipod....mini. But I'm already fine with the one my sister got, which is Creative Nomad I think. 40GB for like $250! Lol. Ipods are just...I CAN NOT control it. I mean literally.

I got a 20GB 4th generation (the ones with Click Wheel) full-sized iPod during this great deal that was supposed to be aimed at college kids. Buy a Powerbook, get an iPod for $200 off--therefore the price of an iPod drops from $270 (my mom works in teaching so she gets educational discount) to a mere $70!! I didn't get the Powerbook from this deal--my boyfriend did--but I got to keep the iPod. Which just proves that if you wait for the right time (this sale happened in late July - early August), Apple will go to great lengths to try and provide you with an iPod. Perhaps wait for after Thanksgiving--and most definitely wait until after Black Friday--and see what happens then.
And to think that I was going to spend $269 on an iPod mini! Silly me. It's not to say that I hate the minis, however I dislike their dearth of space. For example, I now have about 5 GB of stuff on my iPod. If I had a mini, I would have to sacrifice a lot of things to fit its limit.
Now how about those COLOR-SCREEN iPods?! Wow. They can store digital photographs on them, you can view them, and then present them to others using a few connections of some sort. But they have color screens! The only problem? 40GB (the smallest size) = $499.
Or the limited-edition U2 iPods? They have a black shell and a red Click Wheel. On the back, engraved in whatever material they use to make the back, are the signatures of the U2 boys. I don't know how much those cost, sorry.
As for the people who hate Apple for unknown reasons, that's too bad for you. Apple is actually a pretty good company, from what I have experienced (OS X, OS 9.2, OS 8, iPod ownership, iTunes for windows). I don't know why people hate them so much. We use them in our photography class for graphic editing and such, and all my classmates are too thick to try and learn a new operating system. They whine, "Ohhh why don't we use Windows XP?" and then sit there like dolts trying to figure out how to get on the internet so they can check their e-mail. Those airheads...(my classmates, not anyone here)
Then again, I've never understood the great Operating System War. Windows this, Mac that, Linux the other...I use both Windows and Mac and like them both. They both have their little flaws, don't get me wrong, but this shouldn't be the kind of thing where it is bitterly divided, Mac fans, Windows fans, Linux fans.
PS: I thought I wouldn't need 4 GB of space, either, to all those prospective iPod owners. How wrong I was! Keep that in mind.

I could get one for Christmas, but I really don't know. :/ Is it really worth it? *shrug*

Is it ever! iPods are great! I can carry around something as big as my hand instead of a giant clunky circle and a huge clunky binder (CD player and CDs respectively).

As a PC user who tried using macs, I was utterly confused. After sitting down to learn it... I'm converted. Macs are sosososo cool!

Oh okay. I'm still unsure. I don't know whether to get a new mobile phone or Ipod for Christmas. -_- Oh well.
